On December 23, the Orcas Elementary School Science Club will conduct a night time low-tide walk around Indian Island beginning at 8 p.m. on the beach below the county park in Eastsound: if you see headlamps and flashlights around the island that evening, bring down your children and join the fun!
If the water and weather are calm, we may see octopus, giant sunflower stars, colorful sea slugs, and more! A second night time low-tide walk is scheduled for January 22 from 8 to 10 pm, to kick off the 2012 research season for the Indian Island Marine Health Observatory.
